Vault Dweller - Messenger of Doom (2009)

Alright, I think it's due time to take a break between posts fawning over my rad local scene.So here's a sweet album by a great band from Oregon, showing you all one of many many reasons I need to move there.

Recorded in '07, "Messenger of Doom" is a furious Eyehategod-meets-Dystopia riffgasmic onslaught of crusty stoner sludge. If you feel nothing compelled you to headbang furiously to the constant brilliant guitarwork and apocalyptic grooves herein, you, sir or madame, haven't a soul to be compelled.
